Mobility

On the go. Our ability, as a species, to overcome the challenges of our immediate world by simply escaping said immediate world is a rare quality that has afforded us our (so far) brief stint as the dominant form of life on this planet. As we continue to grow, our mobility continues to do so with us. From armies that can project influence anywhere around the globe, to individuals completing spreadsheets for their employers thousands of miles away. Explore how we are continuing to become more mobile, as well as the positive or negative repercussions of doing so.

Processing rules:

Maintain the essence of your photograph.

Capture date rules:

No restrictions.

Additional rules:

The greater challenge lies in capturing mobility without, say, a picture of a cell phone sitting on a desk. Push yourself to tell a story, rather than snapping product photography. A cafeteria full of people using cell-phones is a story about mobility and humans. A lone cell phone is a device that merely represents mobility.

Although both types of images will be accepted, the better photographs and photographers will be those who take up the story-telling challenge.
